Why drop support for Gentoo and openSUSE

Just few users chose them, so we decided to drop it to reduce our workload and bring you better support for other supported Linux/BSD distributions.

openSUSE encourages users to manage system with YaST, that’s fine, and YaST is great. The problem is openSUSE splits software config files into multiple files, and adds many addition files/parameters to make it work with YaST, for example, /etc/sysconfig/*, /etc/apache2/. It’s hard to, and i’m tired to manage config files with command line on openSUSE. It requires too many small hacks to make softwares (required by iRedMail) work like on other Linux distributions, especially Postfix. I believe /etc/init.d/postfix and /usr/sbin/config.postfix are over-designed, they SUCK. Please don’t do too much for your users.

Re: iRedMail-0.8.6 has been released

1) Make sure you have old config file (settings.ini) in new version of iRedAdmin-Pro.2) Execute script 'tools/convert_ini_to_py.sh' to convert old config file to new config file format (Python source file):

# bash tools/convert_ini_to_py.sh settings.ini

It will create a new file named 'settings.py'.3) Set correct file owner and permission:

# chown iredadmin:iredadmin settings.py
# chmod 0400 settings.py

4) Remove old config file:

# rm settings.ini

Does my reply help a little? How about buying me a cup of coffee ($5) as an encouragement?

Hi @connor_mcl,

Please post related log of this smtp session, not just the line which contains error message.

The error was that i tried install cluebringer and the installation stoped couse i lose connection with the remote machine. Now i havent policyd and i havent cluebringer. What can i do now? Im on debian wheezy, mysql backend

Edit - I add old repo debian squeeze, and reinstall again policyd1.82, now is working.

P.D - I think it would be better to remove entries of cluebringer to not confuse people while there is no manual how to update

Re: iRedMail-0.8.6 has been released

Hi Zhang,

I have just upgraded my system from 0.8.5 to latest 0.8.6 - everything was fine, thank you!

Only one minor change - please remove from the upgrade instructions in cluebringer section for pgsql the instruction to run column_character_set.mysql - it doesn't work on pgsql and has no equivalent in pgsql (the database uses UTF8 already for all text data types and on top the version 9.1 iirc doesn't support per column charset).
